Well, after upgrading to Firefox 3 I have realised one of the drawbacks present in the Open Source community - the XForms plugin is not released in concert with FF3. For now, this means a pause in development activity.
Of course I could get involved in the development of the plugin itself, and to this end I have been getting set up with Eclipse for C development. However accessing CVS for Firefox is a problem, as I am behind a firewall. Getting ProxyTunnel built for OS X is the next step, and this is almost complete. After that I hope to have access sorted out and be able to start some serious hacking of the code. Maybe then I can in some small way help to accelerate the release of the plugin for FF3.
